Now I know that I haven't spoken much in the last chapter and it's my bad I have just had nothing to talk about. And really no one like to hear me talk, they rather read the story. Now my latest reviewer I want to tell you that you're right, with these weapons, Logan has become almost unstoppable. But I like adding small twists to the stories so let me tell you that he isn't going to have an easy time, why do you think I kept Earthquake alive? Now let's get on with the story and see what unfolds.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ch.6: Mugged

Logan laid in a soft bed that Sarah had made for him; he had loaded his weapons with all the useful bullets and kept the rest in his backpack. The weapons themselves were hooked onto the back pack as well. Logan felt safer if he had kept the Massacre in his pocket as he slept. He had loaded the busters with laser bullets and a few regular bullets. Logan looked at the clock in the room, it said 10:30 p.m. Logan needed to sleep because tomorrow he had a long trip to Gotham. Logan slept through the night like a baby. He finally awoke full rested and ready to fight evil at 8:00 a.m. Logan put his back pack on and put his overcoat in the side pocket, he kept the Massacre in his pocket still just in case. When Logan walked downstairs he saw Sarah and Victor eating a normal family break feast, in an empty spot sat a plate of tofu and a cup of soy milk. Logan smiled and looked at them both.

"I didn't know you had tofu Cye." smiled Logan.

"Believe me I didn't want to cook it, Sarah likes the stuff so she made you some…you still a vegan?"

Logan nodded and added something else.

"I eat some meats, I have learned to eat what I can but I don't like eating it."

Victor smiled and laughed.

"See meat is good for you boy, no wonder your so buff now."

Logan rolled his eyes and ate his break feast in peace, he watched the two lovers eat there food in peace, how he wished he was able to do that with Raven…but he will never have a good morning till Price's blood is spilt. Logan finished his break feast last and got up to leave the Stone's.

"You sure you want to leave now?" asked Sarah sadly.

"Yes I have to get this job over with but when it is I will come visit you sometime."

"Maybe we might visit you." Victor said with a smile.

Logan nodded and hugged his friend good bye; he kissed Sarah on the cheek and hugged her to. Logan got on his bike and watched the Stone's house go out of his view, he had to drive for at least 2 hours before he could reach Gotham. Logan rode faster and faster but slowed when he ever saw a car coming his way. He didn't want to attract anymore attention then he already had. Logan nearly fell asleep while riding, he had nor music to his chopper so he was doomed to be bored. Logan was actually in sight of Gotham when something he never wanted to happen, happened. A large figure became visible in the road; Logan had no choice but to slow down to take a look at the man. It was Earthquake and before Logan could speed up his foot was grabbed and pulled off the cycle as it road for 4 seconds and then fell on it side.

"You should wear a seat belt." said the very tired and disgusting looking Earthquake.

Logan got to his feet and tried to grab a gun in his back pack but something attacked him from behind. He felt a sharp pain in his head and then collapsed unconscious. Before he went to the darkness he herd Earthquake say something.

"Let's see how you like being abandoned at the side of the road."

Garfield Logan fell to his knees and then his face slammed against the burning cement. Behind him stood Riku Price; he was wearing a black bodysuit with a red belt. He had a long crimson cape and in his hands was a shocker; a long metal rode connected to a battery hooked onto his belt, the shocker was powered with enough electricity to nock an elephant unconscious. Riku had a ninja head dress covering his mouth but his eyes were glowing an eerie grey.

"Take anything you can find and leave his body for the vultures…NOW!" yelled Riku as cloaked men came out of nowhere.

"Mr. Quake, my father would like to speak with you when we return to Jump City, I will let you give him the prizes we find."

Earthquake nodded and watched as the cloaked figures literally glided across the ground, the kneeled over and removed his back pack and cloak.

"Lets go, I can not stand this intense heat. I need my darkness." Riku said with a low grumble.

Riku walked out into the middle of the pavement and a helicopter fell from the skies low enough for him to hop into. The cloaked men joined in.

"Would you like to stay here and burn to death or would you like to hurry up and get your ass in the copter." ordered Riku.

Earthquake cussed below his breathe and got in the copter

"Rest in peace Mr. Logan, it was a pleasure killing you." smiled Riku as he watched the unconscious body of Logan grow smaller.

"Are you sure we should just leave him? What if he lives?" Earthquake questioned.

"Now Mr. Quake, when Mr. Logan awakes it will be 8 hours from now, what real man can live in this heat for 8 straight hours on a blacktop?" Riku sighed.

"Yes I believe you are right sir, I am sorry I questioned your plan." Quake said sadly with his head hanging down.

Riku smiled under his cover and checked the backpack nticing the weapons inside. Riku smiled as he held up the busters.

"I believe my father shall be pleased with these weapons, it seems Logan was planning an attack on my father, well… I guess that isn't happening now is it?" smiled Riku.

The hooded men nodded coldly and Quake nodded as well, Riku's smiled grew bigger as he saw Logan's body vanish in the height of the copter. When they were far above the clouds he felt his body sigh. He may love the darkness but the true beauty of the afternoon son sitting right above his world and the mountains peeking above the beautifully carved white clouds. His soul was free and his mind was at ease but he knew it would not last, it never did. As the copter glided above the white clouds Riku smiled, for the very first time in a month he smiled not of the pleasure of pain, but the pure pleasure of nature. Riku saw the copter descend and so did his heart, he was arriving at the dark, damp, and destroyed city that once was a paradise all its own. His father had taken paradise and made it hell, he never loved his step father but he appreciated the fact his father gave him everything.

"Someday, when my father no longer rules and I will become ruler of this empire, I wish to build a house on the highest mountain, right above the clouds, and live there till the end of my days." Riku whispered to himself.

The copter landed at the roof of Price Corp., Riku hopped out first and carried the back pack he had stolen from Logan and entered the elevator at the end of the roof. Quake joined him in and the 6 hooded men did as well; hey road down 2 floors and reached Mr. Price's private office. Riku walked up the large metal doors and placed his face on a retina scanner and his key card that he kept under his body suit in the slot hole. The door dinged and opened slowly. Riku walked in and placed the items on the large business table. At the end Riku could see the orange flare from his father's cigar.

"Welcome my son, what business do you have with me?" asked Price in a sophisticated manner.

Riku shook his head and pointed to Earthquke.

"Father I believe Mr. Quake deserves a little respect today, we found him with these top secret weapons from Mr. Logan. Earthquake dealt with the problem and left Logan to burn in the blistering heat. Mr. Quake you should go to my father." Riku said with a small smiled.

Earthquake looked at Riku and softly thanked him with all his heart. Quake walked down to the end of the table with the weapons in hand and sat next to Price with a big toothy grin.

"I do believe you are to be thanked Mr. Quake, to think I once doubted your abilities I mean you are one of my 7 top partners, the other 6 I had much faith in but you I did not understand your role. And now that I do, I am glad to see you fulfilled it completely."

Earthquake gave a bow and thanked his partner. The other 6 Price partners bowed there heads and left the room with not a word. Price smiled in the darkness and picked up the buster pistol. He looked at the bullets and placed a red tipped bullet inside.

"But…Mr. Quake you have fulfilled your duties as my employer and now I don't know what to do with you."

Earthquake gave a questionable face and looked at Price with his deep blue eyes.

"Well you can give me my payment and I will be one my way."

"No, no, you don't seem to understand, your duties were done but your job was incomplete I told you to kill Logan not to leave him to die. I can not trust his life on luck, so Mr. Quake I believe you should get out of my office and expect nothing less than my gratitude."

Quake sat up straight and looked Price in the eye, Quake thought over this idea and nodded, he couldn't compete with Price's power, so he began his walk out of the office; as he reached the door Price gave a laugh.

"Silly me…I should not be so greedy, here Mr. Quake I will give you your payment."

With that Price fired the red tipped bullet into the back of Earthquakes head. The giant fell to his knees and grabbed his skull. Fire began to shoot out of his mouth, eyes, and nostrils. His skin began to melt and his bone cracked and shattered. All of Earthquakes skull and upper chest was burnt clear off and the giant fell dead. No blood spilt, his body was smoking with heat and all the blood that reached the tip of his open chest dried and burned at the touch.

"I do believe this weapon will come in handy, Riku take this weapon down to the mechanics lab on the 7th floor in the west wing. Tell them a mass market production is in order. I will make millions off the prophet and no less by my doubt." smiled Price as he handed the silver pistol and the suitcase of bullets to Riku.

The son nodded and walked out of the office, as he left Price yelled at him from afar.

"And get a cleaning crew up here, and if they ask any questions about the body…kill them. I need to keep my office clean and scum free."

"Yes father they will be up here shortly."

With that Riku left to do his job and Price was once again in the darkness of his office. He smelt the burning flesh and blood in the air and smiled. This smell did his old heart good.

"It is time we proceed with the Price Passion, soon I will have a global operation and my dream will come true."

With that the sinister man began to chuckle and laugh. The dark laugh sent echoes through the halls of Price Corp. and was barley noticeable on the rainy streets of Jump City. Price got up from his large chair and walked towards a large window to the side of him; he watched the sunset fall to the black night and smiled again.

"It has begun."
